No(s) dames - tribute awarded to opera heroines

Reservation from November 9, 2023

Giulietta poisoned, Norma burned alive, Carmen stabbed, Juliette committed suicide...
What if drama no longer rhymed with lady at the Opera?
Théophile Alexandre presents a counter-current show, combining the beauty of lyrical singing and a new look at opera. In dialogue with Zaïde, a talented female string quartet, he reverses the roles and revisits the great arias of divas, from Carmen to Violetta, via Eurydice, Juliette or the Queen of the Night. A humanist lyrical manifesto and a feminist reinterpretation of these timeless works, which have been applauded without reserve for hundreds of years!
